The 3.5mm adapters are too easy to use - but if you have your heart set on not using one, I would see it as easier making the conversion to the headphones than in the restricted space and with the high cost of failure in the phone.

I think both my converters cost a couple of quid, but the first was a solid one which i got rid of as its too impractical having such a long projection from your phone, or at least I found this when it was in my Krusell case on my belt.

It was also a pain on flights with the rigid adaptor, as I was using noise cancelling headphones, and a 4xAA battery extender, so my shirt pocket was getting too cluttered, but the adaptor with the cable again made it work.

Why would you want to solder on the wizard.

Just get a decent quality 2.5mm stereo jack, some good ordinary headset en combine the two.

It's a lot easier (and cheaper if you mess up) to solder 4 wires together than to solder some miniature audio jack in a cramped area.

uhhh radio shack? that is where i got my two. one for headphones. (before i got my bt's) and one for car. cassette adapter to phone. old skool ghetto. :)

5$ for two i think. or i have seen javoedge have some also.

****e. i thought you were talking about external.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] xeony2k:
My experience with the audio jack is as follows... it is kind of proprietary. I once took a picture of the jack that comes with the phone and an off the shelf 2.5mm jack. I'm not sure if I would replace the jack even it were possible, but the quirkiness of the jack created some issues for me until I discovered it was indeed non standard.

Hello, you guys. I'm hoping you could help me out. I need help with restoring a stock rom, or firmware for my Huawei Union Phone. It's running on EMUI 3.1. I rooted, (KingUser, Kingroot) removed some simple bloatware mess and restarted in to the Black Screen of Death after the LG symbol disappeared at boot up. I downloaded the firmware but, I don't know where to put it on my sd card so it can restore its self. I've tried restoring it from the menu after pressing Volume + and Power all together and doing it through Restore mode by using Volume + and Volume - and Power button at the same time. Still no restoration of the file. I've also extracted the file and placed the extracted files and the original zip to the root of my sd card. I even tried a video to help me out and still no luck! I've only had this phone for a day! Please, if you can, help me out with anything. :( :( :(

Hello, I'm wondering if you had any success with this. I have a Union Y538 that has gotten stuck on the Huawei logo at boot after I rooted the device. I can access all of the recovery areas, but I'm not sure where to find the firmware. According to another article about the G510 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2401285), the proper location is sdcard/dload/update.app. I found some kind of image file associated with the y538 on the emui site, (http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php?id=hwdownload) but I'm not sure what to do with it now. With the extracted package in the dload location, booting with Vol+ and Vol- held now gives me a screen that says "install failed". Any further advice would be appreciated.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bob.teatow:
I have a similar situation. I rooted with Kingroot, but lost root trying to switch to SuperSU with SuperSuMe. Now I can not re-root with Kingroot, so I want to reflash.

The EMUI site you're looking at does not have the "firmware" image file we need, it seems to have a source code package...

For other Huawei/EMUI phones you will find firmware image files...

PLEASE Let us know if you find the right firmware for Y538

Ah, for example, this site http://consumer.huawei.com/us/support/downloads/index.htm does have firmware for some of the older or more popular models, notice that a typical complete firmware file is 1+GB.

I need Huawei Y538 Union restore/repair help!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] webosFTW:
Guess I will provide a step by step tutorial on how to restore your phone. This costs around ~$15 to do, but fixes your phone. I had my phone stuck on fastboot(100% unbootable) and fixed it instantly.

Firmware: http://depositfiles.com/files/0eghcq2tg

DC-Pheonix: https://forum.dc-unlocker.com/forum/modems-and-phones/huawei/155916-dc-phoenix

Download firmware and DC-Pheonix. Buy 15 credits on https://www.dc-unlocker.com/buy and you will get a email with your username/password.

Load up DC-Pheonix and sign in. Load the .APP (its the 1.7gb file).

Put your phone in fastboot(mak sure you got all your drivers installed) and connect it to your pc.

click update

Let it finish and unplug your phone. Restart your phone. Done.

When setting up DC-Pheonix make sure it looks like this:

You can also buy 4 credits(if I remember correctly) and unlock your phone by using DC-Unlocker(https://www.dc-unlocker.com/downloads/DC_unlocker_software).

Need unbrick Y538

I've seen the problem and I want to say that I also have the same, and the virgin dload gives me error when installing (or stays at 99%)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
There is a 100% confirmed working method for recovering from this type of brick. When dload does not complete installation - or hangs at 99% - some fastboot commands and a clean stock recovery image will save the device & enable it to be restored to stock condition. This method is confirmed to work with both the Virgin Mobile USA variant as well as the Virgin Mobile Data Done Right variant of the Huawei Union Y538.

The "black screen of death," as it has often been dubbed, is actually the result of a corrupt partition index (filesystem) which renders the device incapable of restoring the factory firmware via the dload auto-flash method in stock recovery.

Your bootloader needs to be unlocked and your device must be capable of booting into fastboot mode. First, download & install Minimal ADB & Fastboot v1.4 on your Windows PC. Next, ensure the proper USB Device Drivers for the Y538 are installed on your PC as well. Download the stock recovery image for this device and place the image in your ADB/Fastboot directory. Connect your device to your PC with an OEM or equivalent USB to micro USB syncing/charging cable. Boot your device into fastboot mode. Open a command window in the path of your ADB/Fastboot directory. Type "fastboot devices". Your device serial number will appear in your command window under "connected devices" if you are properly connected. Once a proper connection has been confirmed, execute the following commands:

NOTE: UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER REQUIRED

fastboot oem fb_mode_set

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase logo

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase customize

fastboot erase cache

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot oem config carrier virgin

fastboot oem config fsg-id virgin

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

Your Y538 is now wiped and freshly flashed with stock recovery. Any corruption that previously interfered with the stock restoration process should now be gone. Now, place the dload folder containing UPDATE.APP on the root of your external micro SD card. With your device powered down and your external SD card installed, hold Power plus Volume + & Volume - for approximately 3 - 6 seconds. Stock recovery will automatically recognize the factory firmware in the dload folder and the flashing process will commence. In around 4-5 minutes, your Y538 should be restored to Stock Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, EMUI 3.1.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
In the command window photo you posted, I see an apostrophe in your command. fastboot oem "fb_mode_set

Type it exactly like this fastboot oem fb_mode_set

Disregard that. Your command line looks correct. Blemish on my display. You can skip that command
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
Result....

Command not allowed or Invalid Command
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Ouch. I'm beginning to believe your entire partition index is corrupt. I will do some research on the error type being generated and get back with you later this evening.

Please refresh my memory, is your bootloader unlocked?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
Yes, bootloader is unlocked
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Type this command and post a photo of the results please. fastboot getvar all
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
That is good?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Interesting. Now try fastboot getvar bootloder

Then, fastboot getvar partition
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
This
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Yes, now fastboot getvar partition
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
There is definitely an issue with your filesystem/partition index, I'm just trying to figure it out. The fastboot getvar all was supposed to have generated all information about the device in the command window. Do you have a recent version of HiSuite installed on your PC?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
I have this version 5.0.2.300_OVE
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Ok you're good there. Have you ever installed TWRP on your device?

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------

I have an idea. You can install firmware from TWRP, but we will need for somebody to dump their /system partition and /boot partition.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
If I installed it but not from the adb, but I could internalize it
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
You could boot into it from ADB/Fastboot directory without actually permanently flashing it also. That way you can flash stock recovery from TWRP . You would type: fastboot boot TWRP.img instead of the typical fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img. Not sure how fastboot will act. Also, there is a decent C12.1 custom ROM for this phone. Flash it from TWRP and you have a fully functional Y538.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
In theory, I download the image of the TWRP and call it TWRP.img

And use the following command

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Staying like this

Fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

** ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Yes you download, name your file TWRP.img, place the file in your ADB/Fastboot directory, and (1) if you only want to boot into TWRP recovery and not flash the /recovery partition, type: fastboot boot TWRP.img; if you want to flash TWRP to /recovery, type: fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
What things :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
So I'm guessing that your fastboot boot TWRP.img command didn't boot TWRP on your device. Give me a few moments, I'm going to research something and I'll touch base with you shortly.

---------- Post added at 01:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 AM ----------

I think I know what's going on. Are you using Windows 10?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
Yes , is windows 10, That's the problem?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
It could be. There have been many reports of problems involving unsigned drivers working properly on Windows 10, especially on 64 Bit systems. There's a workaround. First, uninstall your USB Device Drivers for the Y538. (Oftentimes the USB Drivers for Huawei devices are included in HiSuite).

Now, on Windows Desktop, right click the start button and select Command Prompt (Admin). Type the following command:

bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF

Reboot your computer

Reinstall USB Device Drivers
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
When I did that before I could reboot, the blue windows screen came out (I hope it does), I'm still waiting to be able to install the drivers.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Ok. Keep me posted. If this isn't your problem, there are a couple more things we can try.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
I already tried it, installed the drivers and put the commands, even nothing.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Ok, another remedy for this error I found here on XDA is to perform a hard reset of the device. Of course, in your scenario, without a recovery installed, this isn't feasible.

Another thought....there is a CM12.1 (Android 5.1.1) custom ROM available for the Y538. Maybe try and adb push the ROM zip to your device. If you could get an OS booted there are 1001 ways to resolve the issues you are experiencing. Do you need the link for the CM ROM?

This is the link. DestructoSphere CyanogenMod 12.1 Unofficial ROM.

https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/twrp-media-player-rom-audio-mod-t3573728

The fastboot error "command not allowed" most commonly occurs when a device bootloader is locked. I know you stated previously that you had unlocked it, but just to check its status, try:

fastboot oem get-bootinfo
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
Here in the screen I get blocked, when on the screen of the fastboot I get unlocked :)

Now you have to unlock it

(Sorry for answering late, I was in class)

The problem I'm seeing is to unlock the bootloader and for this I need a code.

And to get the code I need to put data from the phone, none is difficult for me except for the Product ID, which I understand is achieved by dialing a few digits on the keyboard (can this process be done by console?)

Or is there another way to unlock it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
Good question. I'll look into it

---------- Post added 10th May 2017 at 12:14 AM ---------- Previous post was 9th May 2017 at 11:40 PM ----------

Call Huawei customer support. Explain that you are needing your Product ID for the bootloader unlock procedure. They should be able to provide you with the ID with you providing the ESN, MEID, etc.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
The call (it seems impossible) I do not know if there are Spanish-speaking services that can solve the problem, but I will also try sending mails to see if throughout the week, I manage to respond, I will continue looking for another alternative to do so.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
I've called Huawei.customer service before and, while the majority of the reps do speak a foreign language as their primary, they are required to speak English, as a huge part of Huawei's customer base is North America. If I can find an alternative I'll be sure to let you know as well.

Sorry my friend, I just now noticed that you speak Spanish. I thought you were referring to the customer service reps.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SuarezSM:
They answered the email and told me this :)

Basically he says he can not do anything about it, right?

(My English is not very good)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MotoJunkie01:
I can understand you ok. It doesn't sound like there are any options. As of now it seems that you are locked out of the device due to the bootloader status, and with no way to obtain the Product ID, it will stay locked. I wish I had a more favorable answer.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TheGingerSage:
